    8. §1.8 Clarity and Ambiguity
      In cases of ambiguity in the rules, interpretations, and decisions will be made by TruckersHub Management. Exploiting loopholes or ambiguous terms is not permitted, and any identified ambiguities should be reported for clarification.

  2. §2 TruckersHub Application Rules

    The TruckersHub application records and processes gameplay data to provide job tracking, statistics, progression, and other services. By using the TruckersHub application, users acknowledge that relevant gameplay and tracking data may be transmitted to and processed by TruckersHub.

    Users are responsible for ensuring that the gameplay data submitted to TruckersHub accurately represents legitimate gameplay. Any attempt to manipulate, falsify, exploit, or interfere with the application, tracking system, or statistics may constitute a violation of these rules.

    1. §2.1 Program Integrity

      Users must not interfere with, bypass, disable, or compromise the security, functionality, or data collection mechanisms of the TruckersHub application.

      This includes attempts to circumvent technical restrictions, validation systems, security measures, or other mechanisms used by TruckersHub to maintain the integrity and reliability of its services.

      Any attempt to compromise the integrity of the TruckersHub application or its services may result in disciplinary action.

    2. §2.2 Cheating and Unfair Advantages

      Cheating, hacking, exploitation, or the use of unauthorized methods to gain an unfair advantage within TruckersHub is strictly prohibited.

      This includes, but is not limited to:

      • Manipulating TruckersHub statistics or progression.
      • Falsifying or artificially generating gameplay data.
      • Circumventing application restrictions or validation systems.
      • Using external tools specifically intended to manipulate tracked statistics.
      • Exploiting technical vulnerabilities for personal or competitive advantage.
      • Using any other method that provides an unfair advantage over legitimate gameplay.
    3. §2.3 Game Modifications and Data Manipulation

      Game modifications are permitted provided that they do not manipulate, falsify, or provide an unreasonable advantage in TruckersHub statistics or progression.

      Users must not modify, edit, replace, or otherwise manipulate game, save, application, or tracking data for the purpose of falsifying, altering, or artificially improving TruckersHub statistics.

      Legitimate modifications that do not materially affect TruckersHub statistics or progression are generally permitted.

      1. §2.3.1 Modification-Based Advantages

        Users must not use game modifications that provide a substantial or unreasonable advantage in TruckersHub statistics, progression, or tracked gameplay.

        This includes modifications that significantly alter or manipulate, but are not limited to:

        • Engine power or vehicle performance.
        • Maximum or sustained vehicle speed.
        • Acceleration or braking performance.
        • Cargo weight or carrying capacity.
        • Fuel consumption or fuel capacity.
        • Vehicle physics or other gameplay mechanics affecting tracked statistics.
        • Map layout, route length, or travel distance.
        • Other gameplay characteristics that can materially affect TruckersHub statistics or progression.

        The use of a modification is not, by itself, a violation. A violation may occur when a user knowingly uses a modification that provides a substantial or unreasonable advantage to obtain abnormal or artificially inflated:

        • Revenue or earnings.
        • Mileage or distance.
        • Job counts.
        • Job completion times.
        • Cargo-related statistics.
        • Progression.
        • Other TruckersHub statistics or benefits.

        TruckersHub may invalidate jobs and remove associated statistics or progression when available data reasonably indicates that a modification was used to obtain an unfair or abnormal advantage.

        The fact that a modification is publicly available, permitted by the game, or does not directly modify TruckersHub files does not exempt its use from these rules when the modification is used to manipulate or obtain an unreasonable advantage in TruckersHub.

        Users are responsible for ensuring that the modifications they use do not result in an unfair or unreasonable advantage within TruckersHub.

    4. §2.4 Bug and Exploit Abuse

      Users must not intentionally exploit bugs, errors, vulnerabilities, or unintended behavior within the TruckersHub application or tracking system to gain an advantage or generate inaccurate statistics.

      Users are encouraged to report bugs or unexpected behavior to the TruckersHub development or support team.

      Continuing to exploit a known issue after becoming aware that it provides an unintended advantage may be considered intentional abuse and may result in disciplinary action.

    5. §2.5 Unrealistic or Manipulated Job Data

      Jobs submitted to TruckersHub must represent legitimate gameplay and contain reasonably consistent data.

      A job may be considered invalid when its recorded data is clearly unrealistic, contradictory, manipulated, or otherwise inconsistent with legitimate gameplay.

      This section includes, but is not limited to, unrealistic speed, job duration, cargo weight, distance, route data, fuel consumption, or other tracked statistics.

      TruckersHub may invalidate a job where the available data reasonably indicates that the recorded activity does not represent legitimate gameplay.

      1. §2.5.1 Unrealistic Speed

        Users must not use cheats, modifications, exploits, external tools, or other methods to achieve speeds that are clearly inconsistent with legitimate gameplay.

        Jobs containing clearly unrealistic or otherwise unexplained speeds may be invalidated.

        Normal variations in speed, temporary speeding, or other legitimate gameplay circumstances do not automatically constitute a violation. Enforcement will consider the available tracking data and the circumstances of the job as a whole.

      2. §2.5.2 Unrealistic Job Duration

        Job completion times must reasonably correspond to the distance travelled and the circumstances of the journey.

        Completing a job in a clearly unrealistic amount of time may result in the job being investigated or invalidated, particularly where the available data indicates teleportation, speed manipulation, route manipulation, or other abnormal behavior.

        Users must not manipulate job duration or other recorded data for the purpose of artificially improving TruckersHub statistics.

      3. §2.5.3 Cargo Weight Manipulation

        Users must not manipulate cargo weight for the purpose of affecting TruckersHub statistics.

        This includes, but is not limited to, modifying save data, game files, configuration data, or using external tools or modifications to artificially increase, decrease, or otherwise alter the recorded cargo weight.

        Cargo data must reasonably correspond to the cargo being transported.

        Jobs containing artificially manipulated or otherwise invalid cargo weights may be invalidated.

      4. §2.5.4 Unrealistic Distance and Route Manipulation

        Jobs must be completed using a legitimate and reasonably consistent route. Users must not manipulate, bypass, or otherwise alter their route or travel distance for the purpose of generating inaccurate or artificially inflated TruckersHub statistics.

        A job may be considered invalid where the recorded distance or route is significantly inconsistent with the expected journey, particularly when the discrepancy cannot be reasonably explained by legitimate gameplay circumstances.

        This includes, but is not limited to:

        • Significant and unexplained differences between the planned and recorded distance.
        • Repeated use of substantially shorter routes to artificially increase job efficiency or statistics.
        • Teleportation or unexplained position changes.
        • Deliberately bypassing significant portions of the expected journey.
        • Deliberate route manipulation.
        • Inconsistent or manipulated GPS, odometer, or tracking data.
        • Any other behavior indicating that the recorded journey does not reasonably represent the job that was undertaken.

        A deviation of more than 25% from the planned distance may be used as an indicator for investigation. This threshold is a guideline and does not automatically constitute a violation. Legitimate detours, road closures, navigation decisions, or other reasonable circumstances may explain a deviation.

        TruckersHub may invalidate any job where the available data reasonably indicates that the recorded route or distance has been manipulated or does not represent legitimate gameplay.

      5. §2.5.5 Other Inconsistent Job Data

        The examples above are not exhaustive.

        Jobs may also be investigated or invalidated when other recorded statistics are clearly inconsistent, contradictory, or incompatible with legitimate gameplay.

        This may include, but is not limited to:

        • Abnormal fuel consumption.
        • Contradictory vehicle or job information.
        • Inconsistent odometer readings.
        • Abnormal location or tracking data.
        • Statistically impossible or highly implausible combinations of job data.
        • Other information indicating that the recorded job does not reasonably represent legitimate gameplay.

        The absence of a specific example from these rules does not permit users to intentionally manipulate or falsify TruckersHub statistics.

    6. §2.6 Modded and Custom Maps

      The use of legitimate custom or modified maps is permitted provided that they do not provide an unreasonable advantage in TruckersHub statistics or progression.

      Users must not use modified maps, shortened routes, custom roads, or other map modifications to artificially increase TruckersHub revenue, mileage, job counts, progression, or other statistics.

      This includes, but is not limited to:

      • Repeatedly using artificially shortened routes to reduce travel distance or completion time.
      • Using custom roads or routes that significantly reduce the distance required to complete a job.
      • Using modified map layouts to bypass significant portions of a planned journey.
      • Using map modifications specifically designed to generate disproportionate TruckersHub statistics.
      • Combining modified maps with other modifications to obtain an abnormal or unfair advantage.

      The use of a modified map does not automatically constitute a violation. TruckersHub will consider how the map is used and its effect on the recorded job and statistics.

      Jobs may be invalidated where the available data reasonably indicates that a modified or custom map was used to manipulate statistics or obtain an unreasonable advantage.

      Repeated or intentional abuse may result in disciplinary action under §2.8.

    7. §2.7 Job Validation and Progress Removal

      TruckersHub reserves the right to investigate and invalidate jobs when available data indicates that they may not represent legitimate gameplay or comply with these rules.

      A job may be invalidated based on the available tracking and statistical evidence even when the exact method used to produce inaccurate or manipulated data cannot be conclusively identified.

      When determining whether a job is legitimate, TruckersHub may consider the job data as a whole, including speed, duration, distance, route, cargo, fuel consumption, location data, and other available information.

      When a job is determined to be invalid, TruckersHub may remove:

      • The affected job.
      • Revenue or earnings obtained from the job.
      • Mileage or distance associated with the job.
      • Statistics generated by the job.
      • Progress obtained through the affected activity.
      • Any other benefits obtained through invalid gameplay.

      Where appropriate, TruckersHub may reset or remove accumulated progress associated with confirmed rule violations.

      TruckersHub may request relevant information or evidence from a user when necessary to review a suspected violation.

    8. §2.8 Program Punishments
      1. First Violation — 7-Day Ban and Progress Reset:

        A first confirmed violation will normally result in a 7-day ban from TruckersHub services.

        Any confirmed invalid jobs and associated statistics or progress may also be removed or reset.

      2. Second Violation — 30-Day Ban and Progress Reset:

        A second confirmed violation will normally result in a 30-day ban from TruckersHub services.

        Any confirmed invalid jobs and associated statistics or progress may also be removed or reset.

      3. Third Violation — Permanent Ban:

        A third confirmed violation will normally result in a permanent ban from all TruckersHub services.

        Any confirmed invalid jobs and associated statistics or progress may also be removed or reset.

      Severe Violations:

      A third confirmed violation will normally result in a permanent ban from all TruckersHub services.

      TruckersHub reserves the right to impose a permanent ban without following the progressive punishment structure in cases involving severe cheating, deliberate system abuse, extensive manipulation, repeated exploitation of vulnerabilities, or other serious violations.

      Disciplinary action may apply to the user's entire TruckersHub account and associated services and is not necessarily limited to the individual job or statistic involved in the violation.
